This is why I chose the Fluke.
One blip and I get a good dose of 415V limited only by a breaker rated in the 10's or 100's of amps. :)

For field work, I'll take reliability over features anyday.
On the bench where my life isn't at stake, I'll suffer a glitch or two for more shiny bits. :D

Thank you all very much for your observations!
Meanwhile I found locally for sale (about $10) this old insulation meter from METRA BLANSKO

for first attempts and for gaining some experience.
And then I will see..
